Digital Intervention for Psychedelic Preparation (DIPP): Comparing Meditation and Music-Based Programs
Sponsor: University College, London
Summary
This randomised controlled feasibility trial evaluates the Digital Intervention for Psychedelic Preparation (DIPP), a novel 21-day self-guided program designed to prepare individuals for psychedelic experiences. Forty healthy volunteers will be randomly assigned to either a meditation-based intervention or a music-based control condition. Both groups will follow identical program structures, with the key distinction being their daily practice focus: meditation or music listening. Following the 21-day preparation period, participants will undergo a supervised 25 mg psilocybin session at University College London. Assessment visits include an in-person follow-up at 2 weeks post-session, followed by online assessments at 3, 6, and 9 months. The primary outcomes include operational feasibility (recruitment rates and participant retention) and intervention adherence (completion rates of DIPP program activities). Secondary outcomes include participant ratings of the platform's feasibility, acceptability, and usability, as well as changes in psychedelic preparedness, the quality of the psychedelic experience, and mental wellbeing over time.

Psilocybin 25mg
Psilocybin PEX010 is an investigational drug provided in capsule form, containing a 25 mg dose of synthetic psilocybin. The product is manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards to ensure purity, potency, and consistency. Each participant will receive a single oral dose of 25 mg psilocybin in a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) capsule. The intervention is administered once during the study session, with the effects expected to last approximately 4 to 6 hours.
